Chapter 344: Who Fights for Brightness (Part II)

Ignoring the four of them, Ye Yingwu walked down the steps quickly in three steps and two steps, and arched his hand at the crowd: "Folks, a certain Ye Yingwu has thanked you for your kindness here." It is true that the lady in the family is happy, but a certain Ye Yingwu asked himself for no avail, there is nothing that can stand such a generous treatment from you, and I also ask the villagers to go back quickly and take back these things, a certain Ye Yingwu deserves it! ”

"Envoy, you will take our good sons and daughters of Zhenjiang Mansion to defeat the Mongolian Tartars, you can afford it!" A young man shouted loudly, his face red with excitement.

"Yes!" Immediately echoed, "If you can keep us peaceful, how can you not afford it!" ”

Ye Yingwu stepped forward and grabbed Lu Wanyan's wrist, didn't care about blaming his wife who was a little panicked, looked at the excited people, and had no choice but to reach out and take an egg in the old woman's basket, and said solemnly: "If you don't accept it, you will be unhappy, and if you accept it, you will feel ashamed." So a certain one accepted this egg, your mind, all here, I don't know what the folks think? ”

The crowd gradually fell silent, and someone shouted: "Long live Ye Yuanjun!" ”

The originally silent doorway was boiling again in an instant, and the black pressure didn't know how many people fell to the ground deeply, shouting loudly: "Ye Yuanjun, long live!" ”

"Hooray! Banzai! ”

I don't know how many people are shouting, and the entire Zhenjiang Mansion seems to be echoing in this shout.

Lu Wanyan shook slightly, and gently leaned on Ye Yingwu's shoulder, Ye Yingwu looked at the scene in front of him without saying a word. When he and Lu Wanyan got married, the people of Xingzhou used to bow down on both sides of the street like this, in order to show their highest respect for Ye Yuanjun, who brought them peace and calm.

But no one shouted "Long live" that time, at that time, Ye Yingwu had not yet added the glory of the Battle of Xiangyang, and he had not yet risen step by step.

But now it's different, the people actually see it very clearly, in the whole world, who else has the ability to replace Ye Yuanjun in front of them, and who else can bring them a better tomorrow?

Let's not care what people in other places think, at least the people of this city have received Ye Yingwu's favor, know Ye Yuanjun's ability, and have also seen Ye Yuanjun's integrity and integrity, only such a person, such a blue sky, is the real king in their hearts, a real monarch.

At that time, the people of Xingzhou hid in their hearts and did not shout out, and today the people of Zhenjiang Mansion have no longer cover it.

Waiting for the people to get up slowly, Ye Yingwu was silent for a moment, and bowed his hand to everyone: "You folks treat a certain person sincerely, and a certain Ye Yingwu will not live up to your high expectations." Today, a certain person made it clear in front of the people of this city that as long as the Tartars have not been expelled for a day, a certain Ye Yingwu will not be called the emperor for a day! ”

Lu Wanyan was slightly startled and looked at Ye Yingwu, and the people also raised their heads in surprise, their eyes full of surprise, but they were immediately replaced by fiery expectations. This is the Ye Envoy in their hearts, this is the Ye Envoy who can lead them to the future!

At a time when the mountains and rivers are broken, the wind and rain are shaking, and when the Huanghuang Song Dynasty collapsed in the past three hundred years, it is really a great blessing in this life to have such a heroic man come forward.

"Drive out the Tartars!" Countless people raised their arms in the air.

Drive out the Tartars! Ye Yingwu clenched his fists and trembled slightly.

――――――――――――――

Carefully escorting Lu Wanyan back to the door, Ye Yingwu couldn't help but reproach softly: "Wanniang, how can you say it and come out, what if you have tire gas." We're just this one precious kid. ”

Lu Wanyan Huo Ran turned around, and the usual agility on her pretty face had been replaced by an indescribable kindness: "Husband, this is the people of Zhenjiang Mansion, it is your people, in other words, how can it not be the people of the concubine, not to mention that some of them still rushed over from the surrounding villages, and the purpose of sleeping in the open is to send these hearts, although it is not a valuable thing, but in the eyes of the concubine, these are heavier than the three mountains, and they should go out in person to thank them." ”

Seeing that Qiqin and the few of them didn't speak, Lu Wanyan then grabbed Ye Yingwu's wrist and said softly: "Husband, don't blame the sisters, they did stop it, it was the concubine who insisted on her own opinion, and if the husband wants to blame, please blame the concubine." ”

Ye Yingwu shook his head softly: "Forget it, but don't be so impulsive next time, after all, so many people are here, and they don't want to see what happens to our children." ”

At this time, Xiao Yangzi walked into the door quickly: "Envoy, the people outside put down their things, and the people left." ”

Ye Yingwu was stunned, turned around suddenly, and Huo Ran pushed the half-hidden door open.

The sunlight after the rain sprinkled on his body, the once empty door, all kinds of valuable or ordinary items, neatly placed there, and everyone who left would subconsciously look at Ye Yingwu's side, when they saw Ye Zhijun standing silently in the sun, their eyes were full of expectation.

"Take it." Ye Yingwu patted Xiao Yangzi on the shoulder, and looked at Qiqin and Yang Xu next to him: "Qin'er, Xu Niang, you two work hard, let the servants count the things outside, whether they are noble or low, all of them will be moved to the house, and the living things can be eaten, and those household utensils can be used, and if they can't be used, they can be hidden and taken care of." ”

Qiqin and Yang Xu both bowed solemnly, Ye Yingwu then squatted down slightly, reached out and touched Lu Wanyan's flat lower abdomen gently, raised his head and said with a smile: "In the future, when our child is born, I will take him to see these every day." ”

Lu Wanyan was slightly stunned: "Look at these?" ”

"Well," Ye Yingwu stood up and said in a deep voice, "Let our children also see that a certain has not failed the people of this city, and the people of this city have not failed to live up to a certain person." ”

Lu Wanyan was silent for a moment, then responded with a smile, and stretched out his hand to help Ye Yingwu tidy up his clothes: "Isn't the husband in the council hall, so many cultural relics officials, don't let them wait for a long time, let's go back quickly, the concubine has sisters here to follow, it's okay." ”

Ye Yingwu stretched out his hand and gently hugged Lu Wanyan, and then left quickly.

――――――――――――

"Congratulations to the envoy." Wen Tianxiang and a few of them were already waiting in the study, and when they saw Ye Yingwu coming in, they hurriedly said, with a smile on their faces, obviously the "long live" that resounded all over the city just now also hit their hearts directly, seeing that it was not just these dozens of civil and military forces behind closed doors, but Ye Yingwu really got the support of the city, how could they not be happy.

The people's heart, this is the people's heart.

originally belonged to the hearts of the people of the Great Song Dynasty, but now it belongs to Ye Yingwu.

"Let's get down to business." Ye Yingwu nodded, and did not rest, but Jiang Tie was hurriedly brought a cup of tea by Ye Yingwu with a very eye-catching look, "The responsibilities of the Song Zhongshu and the Privy Council and the six departments are superimposed, and it is easier to form a separation of powers, which is not a good policy and long-term plan for governing the country, so I think that retaining the Zhongshu and going to the Privy Council is to integrate the military and the government, I don't know what a few people think?" ”

Wen Tianxiang and Su Liuyi and others were stunned, the Song Dynasty set up the Zhongshu Gate and the Privy Council in the third hundred years, in order to make the East Court and the West Court enemies of each other, so as to avoid the situation of one person dominating, although the Privy Council and the six military departments have many overlapping responsibilities, and no one has thought it is inappropriate for many years, after all, they have already done this, and the Song Dynasty has been fighting for three hundred years, if one of them is removed, it will really lead to a monopoly.

Throughout the ages, if a dynasty has reached the point where the minister has arbitrary power, then it is not far from extinction, as was the case in the Han and Tang dynasties, and the same was true in the Song dynasty.

Just when Wen Tianxiang and the others hesitated, Ye Yingwu then spoke: "Although so, the Zhongshu Sect is not in charge by one person, but in accordance with the system of the former Song Dynasty, its powers and responsibilities are divided into three parts, in other words, the six parts are divided into three parts, of which the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households are handed over to the Left Minister, the Criminal Department and the Military Department are handed over to the Right Minister, and the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Rites are handed over to the Governor's Political Affairs, and the three of them are jointly in charge of the political affairs hall under the Zhongshu Gate. ”

There was a look of surprise on his face, and Wen Tianxiang, Lu Xiufu and the others all glanced at each other.

They vaguely understood what Ye Yingwu meant, after removing the Privy Council, it seemed that the political affairs hall was already a monopoly, but in fact, Ye Yingwu was divided into three parts, which made the original one of the left and right ministers and the governor suddenly become hostile.

Among the six departments, the most important are the military department, the household department and the official department, one is in charge of the military and is the foundation of protecting the country; One is in charge of money and food, and is the main body of the country; And the last official in charge is the backbone of the country. Now make three copies of the most important and most powerful three parts, and hand them over to three people, these three people naturally can't do without each other's assistance when they encounter military affairs, and in ordinary times, they naturally look at each other unpleasantly, and it is impossible to wear a pair of pants at all.

In short, Ye Yingwu has turned the original east-west courtyard and polarization into a more subtle separation of powers, if two people, once they look at each other unpleasantly, it is easy to fight together, but if it is three people, even if there are two people who dislike each other, they have to consider the possibility of the third person benefiting after losing both, so as to avoid infighting.

"I think it's okay." Wen Tianxiang said in a deep voice, "The death of the Great Song Dynasty is actually due to the party struggle, the country's demise is still the same as the party struggle, and even makes Jia Rudao treason to the enemy and Lin'an turmoil, we should learn the lesson." What's more, once the monarch dominates the country, there are not many people who can shake our Huaxia, and such an arrangement seems to make the central government dispersed, but it can avoid party strife and ensure stability. ”

Lu Xiufu and Xie Fangde also nodded, looking at Su Liuyi, if there was really anyone who objected, it would not be their turn, after all, Ye Yingwu acted like this, in fact, it was Su Liuyi who suffered the most loss, after all, Su Liuyi was able to be left by Ye Yingwu, which shows that in Ye Yingwu's heart, he was already the number one existence in the army, and the position of the privy envoy was naturally left to him, and now Ye Yingwu has canceled one of the two bosses of the East and West Courtyards, and instead made the person in charge of military affairs become the right minister and become one of the three people, of course, it is a loss for Su Liuyi.

Su Liuyi raised his head and said in a deep voice: "Go to the Privy Council, so that the military department will not be hollowed out, and the minister thinks it is okay." However, the minister has a word, and he doesn't know whether to say it or not. ”

Suddenly rolled his eyes, you "don't know whether to talk about it or not", so I can't help but let you say it. Ye Yingwu looked at Su Liuyi a little helplessly, can't everyone be more sincere and less routine at this time: "Let's put it bluntly, the reason why I left the four of you is because you are a trustworthy and entrusted person, and you are also the person who thinks you are the most capable of shouldering the world." ”

Showing a hint of a smile, Su Liuyi slowly spoke: "The last general thinks that it is very appropriate to remove the Privy Council, but the three phases control the six departments, and they should also guard against these three people colluding with each other, so the Yushitai, as the place where a country is just and righteous, should increase its weight, and the Guozijian and the Hanlin Academy, the Calligraphy and Painting Academy, and the Academy should be self-contained, so as not to be in charge of the power of the central government and think that it is fertile soil to support cronies." ”

Ye Yingwu's eyes lit up, okay, you Su Liuyi, you made a small separation of powers, and you gave a larger separation of powers outside here. Moreover, the cancellation of the Privy Council to keep the Chinese book under the door, although there are not too many trade-offs in terms of strength, but after all, it is not good-looking in the name, so Su Liu Yi simply did not let Wen Tianxiang and their civil officials have a good time.

Yushitai was originally a concentration of all kinds of "talents" who were good at picking thorns, that is, where the trolls were, especially since the Song Dynasty, the emperor and the scholars ruled the world together, so it was not uncommon for the imperial historians to spit at the emperor, but with the Southern Song Dynasty being peaceful, the ministers were in charge, and the Yushitai had long been reduced to a place of "collecting rags", and basically the people who were not welcomed and the grass on the wall were all kicked here, so that they would not dangle in front of the ministers, if it was not for the occasional mention, I'm afraid many people have almost forgotten about this once glorious yamen.

Now Su Liuyi wants to reuse the Yushitai, just so that someone in the court can keep an eye on these left-behind civil officials, and want to do a small move with the generals who are out on their backs, but there is no door, and everyone is still safe.

Of course, even if Su Liuyi doesn't mention it, Ye Yingwu can't let it go, and once he should be a supervisor. However, the Hanlin Academy and the Academy are independent from the entire court system, which is the pinching of the blood in Chiguoguo.

You must know that every year, the vast majority of new scholars will enter the Hanlin Academy or the Academy for further study, cultivate experience, and at the same time serve as the emperor's staff, and the leaders of the Academy and the Hanlin Academy, the scholars of the Hanlin Academy, not only have a high status and peach and plum all over the world, but also are real ministers in the court and the emperor, and they are also the basis for the entire cultural management system to influence the king.

Including Jia Yidao, for many years, Song Zhiquanchen has supported his cronies, that is, through the Hanlin Academy and the Academy of Sciences, so as to achieve the exhaustion of most of the new science and technology scholars, which is the fastest and most effective way.

At present, if the Hanlin Academy, the Academy of Sciences, including the academies, the painting academies, and other departments related to culture and education are all separated and concentrated, it will be tantamount to cutting off the source of cultivating cronies among civil officials, and thus effectively avoiding the rapid growth of a party with a large number of talents.

If we use the view of later generations, in fact, it is to cut off the relationship between universities and officialdom, college students are college students, and people in officialdom are people in officialdom, not all college students have to become officials after graduation, and not all people in academic colleges have to become officials when they come out, and they can also devote themselves to various fields such as culture, military, commerce and trade according to their own choice.

Moreover, in the future, the people who went out of the Academy and the Hanlin Academy were taught by one place, and scattered all over the civil and military officials and the Imperial Historical Tower, even if there was really a confrontation between the DPRK and China, and at first glance, the people on the opposite side were all brothers of the same sect, and naturally they would not start to die, and the faint Academy and the Hanlin Academy would become a new force that could not be ignored through these intertwined relationships.

Separation of powers, Ye Yingwu couldn't help but smile bitterly, he was actually just copying the cabinet system of the Ming Dynasty, and learning from the separation of powers in later generations, dividing the center into three, but Su Liuyi dared to think more than himself, and he actually wanted to divide the entire court into three.

Su Liuyi also noticed Wen Tianxiang's helpless expression next to him and Ye Yingwu's stunned appearance, and sat up straight on the chair, looking like he had nothing to do with himself, which made people angry and funny.

"Very good." Ye Yingwu said slowly, "That's so." ”

With a sigh of relief, Su Liuyi did not move.

And Ye Yingwu has already expressed his position, Wen Tianxiang and they naturally don't say anything anymore, after all, for them, what they care about is how this brand-new country can run more smoothly, so these arrangements that harm the interests of the civil and official system, if Ye Yingwu hesitates, they will fight for it, and if Ye Yingwu nods, then they have no objection.

For Ye Yingwu, what he fancied was not this larger level of separation of powers, but the ability to separate the departments and imperial courts and powers of the Hanlin Academy, Guozijian, Academies and other college types to form a new independent entity.

A brand-new system that focuses only on knowledge and cultivating talents, rather than having too much to do with officialdom. At the same time, with this, Ye Yingwu can also cultivate talents in all aspects more smoothly, including science and technology, medical care, culture and so on.

After all, I have already come, and I can't sit back and watch physics, chemistry and other disciplines still let the West achieve a leading position.

Although the West is still in the darkest Middle Ages, Ye Yingwu knows that science cannot be studied and explored in a day, and there is not much time left for him.

In that time and space, the Chinese nation was beaten and ravaged because of its backwardness, and it could only endure the pain and catch up, and could only pay the efforts and sacrifices that others could not imagine. And now that he has come to this era, he naturally can't watch the darkness repeat itself six hundred years later. (To be continued.) )
